“ So what I really want from Fowlescombe is actually that you come away feeling like you've stayed with a friend—if that friend was an amazing cook, had really beautiful guest rooms, and was a fantastic host—who'd looked after you really well and who'd really made the effort to show you around. Because actually there's nothing better than visiting a place with a friend, seeing it through their eyes and feeling like you've seen something a bit different.”We’re in great company

“ I feel like Berlin is a city where anything is possible, while never quite achieving polished glamor. And that's its charm. There is no steep hierarchy to enter the art scene, or any scene to be honest. And that is what we wanted to reflect here in Château Royal Berlin, this kind of openness and uniqueness.”We’re in great company with Kirsten Landwehr, co-founder and curator of Château Royal, an enchanting and eccentric boutique hotel in the heart of Berlin Mitte, where craftsmanship and

“If I go to the good Hopi Indian quote, ‘We don't inherit the earth from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.’ I sit in reflection of that and I hope the future generations will lead with heart and they'll be guided by the values that built this legacy to date. That they honor the past by innovating with purpose and with integrity. Everybody's always got to remember that stewardship is a sacred trust, and one that turns heritage into hope.”We’re in great company with Shan and

"There were four things that I thought were really important. The first one was to be humble and confident. Number two, be open-minded, but have a point of view. The third point was to know there is no substitute to working hard. Last but not least was to embrace change and challenges.”We’re in great company with Sylvia Wong, the Owner of The Roundtree Amagansett, where she meticulously polished a hidden gem into an award-winning luxury boutique hotel in the heart of the Hamptons that pays homage to

“It also gave birth to our hospitality program, which was another way to bridge the gap between urban and rural communities so that we could create a conversation around ranching and really a whole community on the ranch beyond the team that was working the land. And today it's very similar to what that original lease mandated. That we really look at land multi-dimensionally and it's become really integral to our mission.”We’re in great company with with Tess Leach, Co-Owner and Head of

Where we go as locals, which restaurants we go to, what we eat, what we do in our spare time. It's the art and the pleasure of giving, I feel very proud and honored and lucky to live where I live. And I want to share that experience with as many people as possible so they can take a little bit back with them wherever they go home to.”We’re in great company with Mar Suau, the

“I like to say sometimes we are an analog experience. Everybody today is talking about digitalization, which is indeed important. But the digital means can never, ever replace the human connection between two people. We are artisans of memories. It's the software of our hotels. The hardware is in the beauty, how they look, but it would be completely empty and without soul if it was not about the people.”We’re in great company with Ingrid Koeck, a Partner of Torel Boutiques in Portugal where her

“Culturally, it's so important because a lot of experiences are just the same all over the world. Hotels, theaters, cinemas, music—it's so mainstream today that we all consume pretty much the same thing. But culinary-wise, there's still this chance to create and cook something that's so local on the level of experience that you can really understand and feel the landscape, the seasons, the culture, and the history of the country. So I'm super happy to be in that field because I think we're one of

That feeling you get from visiting your great aunt or your grandmother. That one elderly female family member where you go when you just want to be deeply nourished and you feel completely at ease and safe. All your worries just sort of dissolve instantly.”We’re in great company with Fleur and Nicole, partners in life and in profession who

So when you go to the storehouse in Dublin now, you'll see that the first 10 years of his brewing career in Dublin was brewing an ale, and that was the ale that his father taught him in Cashel. If it was not for the Archbishop of Cashel, we would not have Guinness. And therefore, we consider ourselves the Godfather of Guinness.”We’re in great company with Adriaan Bartels, the award-winning

I would suggest getting lost on the small inland roads to discover the breathtaking views, the old abandoned villages, the endless fields of lavender, just to wander around. And I would actually do the same with the boat. So I would also get lost in the multitude bays, and go to the local fisherman’s restaurant because he will do his best to give you the best fresh fish that he caught that morning.”We’re in great company with Maud Truchi, the visionary behind and

But in Florence, you go to a great tailor who will do a beautiful suit. You decide the textile, you decide the buttons and all the details that you love. And this is a unique piece just for you. And this is what we create every day, for every guest, in a different way. This is the sense of place.”We’re in

Even if you open the window, you can listen only to the birds, and that is it.”We’re in great company with Stéphanie Gombert, the soul of Château de la Treyne, a luxurious Relais & Châteaux hotel and Michelin Star restaurant that stands high above the Dordogne River in France.
